To access the Internet and send and receive email on your
netBook you must have the following:
1. An appropriate Email account.
To access the Internet and use email, you will need an
Internet ‘standard’ email account. See the ‘Before you
start…’ section for more details.
2. A Modem.
You will need a modem to connect your netBook to the
telephone network. You can use the following types of
modem with your netBook:
• Standard external PC modems.
• ‘PC Card’ modems.
• Mobile phones with built-in modems.
Note: if your mobile phone doesn’t have a built-in modem,
you will need to use it with a PC Card modem.
3. A telephone connection.
If you are using a standard external modem or PC Card
modem, you will need to connect your modem to a
telephone socket. If you are using a mobile phone, your
network operator will need to enable your SIM (Subscriber
Identity Module) card so that you can make fax and data
calls on your phone. If your phone has been enabled for fax
and data calls, you should have two extra phone numbers.
Contact your network operator if you are unsure whether
your phone’s SIM card is ‘data-enabled’.
Note: If your mobile phone supports IrDA you can use it
without the need for additional cables.
Getting help.
If you are having connection problems, you can find information
about connecting using specific service providers, modems or
mobile phones on our Web site at “www.mobile.psion.com”.
